To use the ASCII interface with a direct serial connection, follow the instructions in 
the AP Quick Start Guide, included in your package.

The AP supports a dial-up connection to the UI. This requires accessing the UI from 
Telnet or a direct serial connection and changing the serial port configuration. 
Configure the AP for the following:

■

Enable serial port.

■

Set serial port for UI.

■

Disable any modem connection.

■

Set AP to answer mode.

Select the Set Serial Port Configuration option to configure these settings. For 
details on configuring these settings, see “Configuring for Dial-Up to the UI”.

Use the following keystrokes to navigate through the UI menus and windows 
depending on the terminal emulation. For terminal emulation programs that do 
not support arrow or function keys, use the control-character equivalents.

The following conventions also apply to navigating windows and menus:

■

To select menu items, press the key corresponding to the bold letter for the 
item (case-sensitive hot key). Press Enter to select the item.

■

Press Tab to scroll through menu items.

■

To change menu items, select items from the bottom line of the Main Menu for 
configuration options. For multiple choice options, press the bold letter to 
select. To change values, type in the new value and press Enter. If the value is 
invalid, the AP beeps and restores the original value. Press Tab to scroll to the 
next menu item.

■

Select an option from the bottom line on the menu to enable changes to take 
effect. Press Tab to scroll to the item and press Enter to select it.

■

When you change values, such as System Name or System Password, accept 
values by scrolling to the next field or pressing Enter.
